National Post publishes law student's oped on the issue of regulating safety

Law student Laura Mcgee, 3L, wrote an oped in the National Post, "Don’t regulate safety — incentivize it", which suggests a bond-posting requirement could be used to incentivize companies to implement cutting-edge safety measures.

Mcgee argues this type of regulation could prevent future tragedies, such as the fire and train derailment recently in Lac Megantic, Quebec.

The article cites Regulatory and Corporate Liability, a textbook written by Faculty of Law Prof. Kent Roach, Ken Jull and Todd Archibald.

Update: read the response by law student Andrew Mihalik.
